A manufacturer produces nuts and bolts. It takes 1 hour work on a machine A

and 3 hours on machine B to produce a package of nuts. It takes 3 hours on
Page 4 of 5

machine A and 1 hour on machine B to produce a package of bolts. He earns a

profit of Rs.17.50 per package of nuts and Rs.7 per package of bolts. How many
packages of each should be produced each day so as to maximize his profits if
he operates his machines for at the most 12 hours a day ? Form the above as a
linear programming problem and solve it graphically.

25.

A shopkeeper sells three types of flower seeds A , B and C . They are sold as a
mixture where the proportions are 4 : 4 : 2 respectively. The germination rates of
three types of seeds are 45% , 60%, and 35%. Find the probability : -

26.

a)

of a randomly chosen seed to germinate

b)

that it is of the type C, given that the randomly chosen seed does not
germinate.

An amount of Rs. 600 crores is spent by the government in three schemes.

Scheme A is for saving girl child from the cruel parents who dont want girl child
and get the abortion before her birth. Scheme B is for saving of newly wed girls
from death due to dowry. Scheme C is planning for good health for senior
citizen. Now twice the amount spent on Scheme C together with amount spent
on Scheme A is Rs.700 corers. And three times the amount spent on Scheme A
together with amount spent on Scheme B and Scheme C is Rs.1200 crores.
Find the amount spent on each schemes using matrices.
What is the importance of saving girl child from the cruel parents who
dont want girl child to get the abortion before her birth ?
